I met Tony Hansell at Yokota as a young F-4 backseater in June of 1969. I remember him as one of the older heads in the squadron who had all the qualities I aspired to - a beautiful family, a confident and friendly demeanor, and a good golf game. Being younger and a bachelor at the time we didn't associate a lot but I remember his leadership by example and strong influence on our unit - the 80th Tactical Fighter Squadron. That squadron turned out many of our top leaders in the Air Force, including the current Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Dick Myers. It seems Tony went before his time - I am sure he is grealy missed by his family. Very Respectfully, Phil Comstock |
